Kawasaki Introduces Narrower TERYX Line For 2027

Bucking the trend in the name of the woods.

It seems like most years, companies brag that their machines are getting bigger and wider and we get that. Increased leg space, headroom and stability are never bad things. Here’s the rub, though – they get too big and too wide and they no longer work on the trails.

Kawasaki gets it. They have announced a new line of Teryx 1000s built for the woods at 63.8 inches wide (down from the standard 68.1 inch) called the TR series.

For 2027, the TERYX KRX 1000 TR and TERYX KRX4 1000 TR side x sides expand the lineup with purpose-built models designed specifically for tight 64-inch wooded trails, offering enhanced comfort and confidence in dense terrain.

Compared to the standard models, the TR versions feature a narrower overall width for improved maneuverability on narrow forest paths while maintaining the same generous ground clearance through refined suspension arm mounting angles. They retain the lineup’s strong off-road capability with 17 inches of front and 18 inches of rear wheel travel, 31-inch Maxxis Carnivore tires, and suspension tuning optimized for smoother, more comfortable low- to moderate-speed trail riding with stable cornering.

Powered by a parallel-twin engine delivering strong low-end torque through a CVT and centrifugal clutch, the TR models provide smooth power delivery and reliable engine braking, while the spacious cabin and adjustable ergonomics ensure comfort whether riding alone or with family and friends.

And yes, the standard size models will still be on offer as well.
